Pippa, if you don't care about posting without exif data simply go to Save For Web - resize the image dimensions with 800 on the longest size and then adjust the quality of the image. Make sure jpeg is selected, hit ok. I usually rename it at this point as so and so "for web". Hit ok.

You will then be asked "do you want to save it" -0 select no, that way you have this one as a copy and the original of it remains intact.

Hope this helps, it's a really easy way to do it if you don't care about sharing exif.

hi Sheila
i think its good to show exif. people have given me helpful comments by being able to see the data. and i do like to be able to see others. i know now that its uses a lot more file space.

at one time i had a lot of problems using the save to web method as i did not get an accurate rendition of colour. but i figure that was down to me having made some change in the settings somewhere along the line.

i have been told its better to use 'save as' and not save to web, and i dont remember why. But, if its your method, judging from your images, then it gives me more confidence to use 'save to web'.

thanks for telling me what you do - it opens up my options. what quaity do you select?
